【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了埃及金字塔的历史, 以及是谁建立起它们的, 建立的时间, 里
面包含的东西等信息。
【1题详解】
句意:今天,很多金字塔还沿着埃及尼罗河幸存下来以供我们参观和研究。
to see观看,为不定式;seeing观看,为现在分词;saw观看,为过去式;sees观看,为三单。此处考查动
词不定式作目的状语,表示:金字塔幸存下来是为了让我们参观和研究。故选A。
【2题详解】
句意:当今,人们看着它们,会问:“谁建造了它们?为什么而建?什么时候建的?里面有什么?”
they它们,人称代词主格;them它们,人称代词宾格;their它们的,形容词性物主代词;theirs它们的,
名词性物主代词。根据空前的“built”可知,此处表达的是:谁建设的金字塔?所以,需用人称代词指代前
文出现的金字塔,又因此处是作宾语,所以应该用人称代词的宾格。故选B。
【3题详解】
句意:数千年前,埃及的一些国王创造了金字塔。
Thousands,为错误表达,thousand若加了s,后面必须接of;A few thousands,为错误表达,thousand若加
了s,后面必须接of;Thousands of数千的;Thousand of,为错误表达,thousand后若接of,thousand需用
复数。故选C。
【4题详解】
句意:他们将它们建作坟墓。
built建造,为一般过去时的谓语;building建造,为动名词;build建造,为一般现在时的谓语;are
building建造,为现在进行时的谓语。由于此处叙述的是过去发生的事,需用一般过去时。故选A。
【5题详解】
句意:他们认为金字塔可以帮助人们把他们作为重要人物记住。
第2页/共19页

句意:我们今天知道的最古老的金字塔有大约5000年的历史。
is是,一般现在时的谓语,且为三单;are是,一般现在时的谓语,且为复数;was是,一般过去时的谓语,

“The oldest pyramid”为单数。故选A。
【7题详解】
句意:最大的金字塔是胡夫金字塔。
large大的;larger更大的;largest最大的,为错误表达,最高级前必须有the;the largest最大的。根据空后
的可数名词单数“pyramid”可知,此处表达的是:最大的金字塔是胡夫金字塔。故选D。
【8题详解】
句意:它大约144米高,由230万块石头建造而成。
from来自;by被,通过;of属于;with用。此处考查短语“由……制成”。be made from和be made of都

以看出原材料。故选C。
【9题详解】
句意:这些石头很大很重。
very非常,很;such这样的;much多;too太。此处修饰形容词表程度,应用程度副词。very和too都为
程度副词,但too通常含有贬义。故选A。

句意:它们大部分比一个人还高。
a一个;an一个;the(指已提到的人或物)。person为可数名词单数,前面必须有冠词对它进行限定,排
除D。a/an为不定冠词,the为定冠词,不定冠词表泛指,定冠词表特指。此处是表泛指,排除C。又因a
用在辅音音素之前,an用在元音音素之前,person为以辅音音素开头的单词,所以此处需用a。故选A。

句意:每年,来自世界各地的旅行者都来参观它。
came来,为一般过去时的谓语;come来,为一般现在时的谓语,主语为复数概念时使用;comes来,为
一般现在时的谓语,主语为单数概念时使用;are coming来,为现在进行时的谓语,主语为复数概念时使

第3页/共19页
学科网(北京)股份有限公司需要更多资料,请加微信:educat51

代词。故选B。
【13题详解】
句意:然而,这些人根本没有现代化的机器。
So所以;However然而;But但是;Because因为。根据对句子结构的分析可知,此处需填入一个副词,修
饰后面整个句子。在四个选项中,只有However为副词,其他单词都为连词性质。故选B。
【14题详解】
句意:现在科学家们正努力研究这些金字塔。
hard努力地;hardly几乎不;harder更努力地;more hardly,无此结构。此处是副词修饰前面的动词
“working”,且无比较关系,排除C。work hard努力工作,故选A。
【15题详解】
句意:然而,没有人知道古代的人们是如何建造它们的。
somebody某人;anybody任何人;everybody每个人,人人;nobody没有人。根据“Now scientists are
working...to study the pyramids.”可知,科学家们还在研究金字塔,由此可推测出,没有人知道古代的人们
是如何建造金字塔的。故选D。

What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves? Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its
way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping. But none

Well, all of these could be the future of driving. There are several companies, for example, Google, working
on driverless cars. So far, no Google self-driven car has got a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accident
when other cars hit them.
These cars are now still in the testing stages. If the tests are successful, these electric, self-driven cars could be
available(可使用的) very soon. But how is it possible for a car to drive itself? Cars already have many features
(特征) allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being

driven car very soon.
The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The self-driven car
may be able to stop this. However, some people do not like the idea. American lawyer Whit Drake, for example,
doesn’t believe these cars are safe. He thinks that technologies can also be mistakes.

B. tell readers the danger of self-driven cars
C. ask readers to keep away from heavy traffic
D. make readers be interested in self-driven cars

Professor Stephen Hawking was born on 8th January, 1942 in Oxford, England. When he was eight, his family
moved to St. Albans, a town about 20 miles north of London. At the age of eleven, Hawking went to St. Albans
School and then went to University of Oxford in 1959, where his father once studied. Hawking wanted to study maths
although his father asked him to learn medicine. Since maths was not a choice at that university, he chose to study
physics instead. Three years later, he won a very important prize in natural science. In 1963, Hawking suffered from a
serious disease and was told that he couldn’t live more than two years. In fact, he lived for another fifty-five years,
until he died in March, 2018, but he had to use a wheelchair for the rest of his life.
Hawking was also a famous writer. His first book, A Brief History of Time, came out in 1988 and became an
international best seller. He also wrote a children’s book, George and the Big Bang, with his daughter, while he was
on a visit to Hong Kong for the first time over 10 years ago. Hawking said the book would be a bit like Harry
Potter but without the magic. “It explains the wonderful universe (宇宙),” said Hawking.
In 2014, a movie called The Theory of Everything was shown in cinemas. It was based on (以……为根据)
Hawking’s life. Hawking liked the film and said it made him think over his own life. “Although I’m disabled, I
have been successful in my scientific work.” Hawking wrote on Facebook in November, 2014. “I have traveled
widely and I hope to go into space one day.”
34. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. George and the Big Bang.
B. A Brief History of Time.

Where did these numbers come from?
Eleven and Twelve
The number “eleven” comes from the German word “ainlif”, which means “one left” in English. Twelve follows
the same rule. It comes from “twalif”—“two left”. Why did people use “teen” instead of “lif” from 13 to 19? We
still don’t know.
42,195 kilometres in a Marathon(马拉松)
The story began with an ancient Greek soldier Pheidippides. Once his country won a big war(战争) and he
carried the good news from Marathon to Athens. He ran so fast that he died after telling people the news. To
remember Pheidippides, people held the first modern marathon in the first Olympic Games in 1896. It was about
40 km from Marathon to Athens. But race organizers for the 1908 Olympic Games in London wanted to add
something special. They made it 42,195 km. And since 1924 the number 42,195 has been kept in marathon.
28 Days in February
Before the calendar(历法)we use today, one of the first Roman calendars had only 304 days and ten months
(March through December), with six months of 30 days and four of 31 days. The second king of Rome
changed the old calendar. He added 50 days for January and February. To make the new months longer, he took
one day from each of the 30-day months, and then made 56 days to divide between, January and February(28
days each). Later January was given one more day to add up to 355 days a year, but February still had 28 days.
That’s how it became the shortest month and it stayed that way ever since.
38. The marathon became longer at London Olympic Games because ________.
A. the British was bad at Maths
B. the British didn’t like the Greek story
C. the British wanted to run longer
D. the British wanted to make the race different
39. How many days were there in each month after the second king changed the old calendar?
A. 28, 29 or 31.
B. 28, 30 or 31.
C. 28, 29 or 30.
D. 29, 30 or 31.
40. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. We don’t know why the numbers from 13 to 19 didn’t follow the rule of twelve.
B. There used to be 304 days a year according to the first Roman calendars.
C. The Greek soldier ran from Athens to Marathon to carry the good news.
D. After changing the old calendar, February became the shortest month in a year.
